A movement is on foot to extend the
city water mains to the cemetery. The
condition of the home of our dead loved
ones has for a long time been in such a
deplorable condition as to draw tears OF
shameful grief from the ey es of stricken
parents, children, brothers, sisters and
friends, and it seems people have be-
come thoroughly aroused on the sub
lect. There is good reason to move IN
the matter of beautifying the cemetery
for it has for years been only barren
waste of sagebrush. and because there
has been no water, friends could not
plant a shrub or flower to make the
place more beautiful.
A petition was being circulated yes.
terday, asking the City Council to adop
measures iOr the Iemeiylng of this de-
felt and we believe that BODY will act
promptly in the matter and give the
relief asked for. They should do so at
any rate, and they should move at once
so that people may have the satisfaction
OF commencing the work of identifying
the present season. 1t is useless to saw
that no one needs urging to sign the
petition, as people are only too anxious
to have the improvement made. We
hope to see the Council take favorable
action on the matter at its session this
evening,
